A work vehicle includes a cab, a driver's seat disposed inside the cab, a first steering device, a second steering device, a seating sensor, and a control unit. The first steering device is disposed in front of the driver's seat. The first steering device is configured to perform a steering operation of the vehicle. The second steering device is disposed to a side of the driver's seat. The second steering device is configured to perform a steering operation of the vehicle. The seating sensor detects whether or not an operator is sitting in the driver's seat. The control unit disables the steering operation with the second steering device when the seating sensor detects that the operator is not sitting in the driver's seat.

Vehicle seat

A vehicle seat is fixed to a B pillar disposed in front of a door provided on a side surface of a vehicle, and constructed to be foldable.

LARGE CAB INNOVATIONS

A refuse truck includes a chassis, a body, a lift assembly coupled to the chassis and/or the body, a cab coupled to the chassis and positioned in front of the body, and a control system. The cab includes an armrest comprising controls pivotable between an active position and an inactive position and an armrest position sensor configured to determine a position of the armrest between the active position and the inactive position. The control system configured to control a user interface to provide an indication of a current position of the lift assembly. The control system further configured to determine a position of the armrest, and selectively activate a pendent control on an exterior of the body.

Work vehicle operator station with arm height adjustment mechanism

An operator station is provided for a work vehicle cab. The operator station includes a base frame; an operator chair including a chair frame; and a chair arm. A chair arm adjustment mechanism includes a mounting post and the chair frame; a clamp configured to fit about the mounting post; a tie rod; and a lever. The lever is movable into a first pivotal position to move the tie rod to substantially disengage the clamp surface from the post surface, and the lever is movable into a second pivotal position to move the tie rod to substantially engage the clamp surface on the post surface. When the clamp surface is disengaged, the chair arm body is movable along the post axis, and when the clamp surface is engaged with the post surface, the chair arm body, at least in part, is fixed along the post axis.

Adjustable width control pod bracket assembly

A control pod bracket assembly for an operator seat of a work machine adjusts a spacing distance between a right control pod and a left control pod. A right side bracket and a left side bracket having the control pods mounted thereon may be slidably coupled to a center bracket to move between inward and outward positions. Right side bracket and left side bracket locking mechanisms are selectively engageable to lock the side brackets at the inward or outward positions, and to unlock and allow the side brackets to move between the inward and outward positions. Adjustment of the side brackets allows the control pod spacing to be varied between a minimum control pod spacing distance and a maximum control pod spacing distance.

11357119 · 2022-06-07 · ·

A method and apparatus include attaching a lighted cup holder to a seating arrangement. The lighted cup holder includes a cup holder body and a light-producing light source, with the cup holder body being attached to the seating arrangement and having a cup receptacle therein, the light-producing source being disposed within the cup receptacle for illuminating the receptacle. A light-sensitive element operatively connected to the light source selectively controls production of light by the light source in such a manner that illumination of the cup holder is provided only under conditions where visibility is reduced to the point that it becomes difficult to locate the cup holder. The light-sensitive element is mounted on a master lighted cup holder and controls illumination of the master lighted cup holder and one or more slave lighted cup holders operatively connected to the master lighted cup holder.

Armrest module with human-machine interface for vehicle seat

An armrest module for a motor vehicle. The armrest module includes an armrest arm able to support the arm of an occupant of the motor vehicle, the armrest arm extending primarily in a longitudinal direction (X); a pad, the pad being pivotable relative to the armrest arm about two axes (A1, A2) which are perpendicular to each other, the two axes (A1, A2) also being perpendicular to the longitudinal direction (X) of the armrest arm; and a human-machine interface provided by the pad.

WORKING VEHICLE

A working vehicle includes an operator's seat, a vehicle body to travel selectively using either manual steering performed manually by the operator or automatic steering performed based on a position of the vehicle body detected by a position detector without manual operation by the operator, and a first operation actuator on a lateral side of the operator's seat to selectively start or terminate the automatic steering during rearward traveling of the vehicle body or to correct the position of the vehicle body during rearward traveling of the vehicle body.

Armrest

An armrest includes a first branch cable and a second branch cable, a frame, a skin covering the frame, and a foamed resin material. The frame includes a first routing section and a second routing section in which the first branch cable and the second branch cable are arranged, respectively. The foamed resin material is disposed on an inner side of the skin. The first branch cable and the second branch cable are disposed within the foamed resin material in the first routing section and the second routing section.
